Okay, so I'm good enough techincally inside a PC to put one together myself nor do I want to venture into building my own PC at the moment so please don't tell me to do that.

What I would like is for people to go to this site pcspecialist.co.uk and choose me parts. I think some of the more hardware technical here would be better at doing this and get me the best for my money :)

I would like to spend from about £1000 - £1300 (no monitor, mouse, keyboard or speakers needed)

I primaraly want the game for video editing, high end gaming, rendering (video editing, cinema 4d etc) and other demanding tasks. I already have a high end gaming PC but it has too many problems to bother fixing.

I would also like to note I would like a PC that is fairly quiet as well. I've looked into water cooling but it sounds like it could be a bit of a problem if I've never had experience with it before and I've heard of people leaking the liquid all over their parts.

Would be really greatful to any number of people to do this :)

Thanks in advance!

I know you dont want to hear ppl tell you to build it but your gonna hear it anyways. I never even looked inside a computer before and was able to do it a couple weeks back. I can link you a video ( a couple actually from youtube) that go step by step and assemble each part. It is insanely easy to build a pc if you go slow and watch the videos. I would reccomend them over the sticky on here....way better than pictures. I wont say you will save tons of money from building yourself but you will save some and you willhave the peace of mind that some idiot who hates his job isnt rushing through the pc.

These are the vids http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCwpart 1 of 3 awesome videos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUY0tP5jYIo 2 hour video walkthrough. really good

I will post below the pc I would get if you are intent on a premade.

AHH! lol.... site is annoying and its hard building someone a comp cuz I feel so much is preference. All I am going to do for you is list my specs which fit in your range. And the system isnt noisy to me either.

i7 2600k ( because you said rendering and I think you might want this then instead of the i5)

Asrock extreme4 gen3(assuming they even offer it i dunno)

8gb Ripjaw G skill RAM

Any optical drive

PSU 650+ ( dont know how the site works PSU)

GTX 580

Case is watever they got.

The problem is I lost a lot of money on my last PC that cost £1000 and that is only 9 months old due to the huge problems I've had with it so I don't really want to take any risk of having another hugely expensive PC go wrong in anyway. A general question to anyone. How quiet is water cooling and how easy is it to manage without knowing much about it? How much PSU should I have? The more the better? I was looking at a decent make 850+ one.

I'm going to watch the videos you posted anyhow and look into building my own PC.

I still would like people to build a PC for me as to what parts I could use though. Use any site you like!
